Florian Gaté defended his thesis on 2016, October, 10th on the Estimation of the composition of cosmic rays using the radio signal. His thesis is mostly dedicated to the analysis of the AERA data but the analysis he developed has been done within the CODALEMA research group and has been successfully adapted and used on CODALEMA data. The summary of his document is the following :
More than a century after their discovery, cosmic-rays are still puzzling physicists.

On the 13th of October 2014, Jennifer Maller defended his thesis on the following subject: Characterization of radio transient signals at the Pierre Auger Observatory. Jennifer analyzed the first data from the AERA antenna array. The summary of his document is the following :
After more than a century of studies, one of the challenging questions related to ultra-high energy cosmic rays concerns their nature, which remains unclear.
Our contributions at the 4rd Roma International Conference on Astro-particle Physics, Roma, Italy (May 22th - 24th 2013)
We describe the experimental setup and the results of RAuger, a small radio-antenna array, consisting of three fully autonomous and self-triggered radio-detection stations, installed close to the center of the Surface Detector (SD) of the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina.
Vincent Marin defended his thesis on the 20th of December 2011 on this subject: Radio-detection of ultra-high energy cosmic rays. Analysis, simulation and interpretation. His work has been mainly dedicated to the development of the SELFAS simulation code. The summary of his document is the following :
Despite the use of giant detectors suitable for low flux beyond 1018 eV, the origin of ultra energy cosmic rays, remains unclear.
Our contributions to the 32th International Cosmic Ray Conference, Beijing, China, (August 11 to August 18, 2011).
On the 16th of December 2010, Thibault Garçon defended his thesis on the following subject: Towards autonomous radio detection of ultra high energy cosmic rays. His work was based on Coda2, and prepared the upcoming autonomous stations of Coda3. The summary of his document is the following :
The radio-detection of extensive air showers, investigated for the first time in the 1960’s, obtained promising results but plagued by the technical limitations.
Our contributions at the 4th International Workshop on Acoustic and Radio EeV Neutrino detection Activities, Nantes, France (June 29th - July 2nd 2010)
Colas Rivière defended his thesis on the 17th of December 2009 entitled From radio signals to cosmic rays. Colas work was one of the strongest contribution to the analysis of the radio and particle signals recorded when the instruments were in the Codalema 2 configuration. The summary of his document is the following :
Radio detection of high energy cosmic rays is currently being reinvested, both on the experimental and theoretical sides.
